A régóta kiépített forrás a Tacsi-árok alsó részébe torkolló Madárárokban, természetes környezetben található.

A forrás környezete sokszor vizenyős, de a közelben növő enyves égerek az egykor itt jellemző, még nedvesebb élőhelyről árulkodnak. A kifolyót kőfal védi a domboldal felől, a vízhez pedig az oldalsó kőlépcsőkön juthatunk.

A régi foglalást 2011-ben felújították, a korhadó lábú asztalokat és padokat viszont óvatosan használjuk! A forrás közelében állt az egykor esőbeállóként működő Kinizsi-kunyhó, amely sajnos egy tűzvész áldozata lett. Ha a Várhely-kilátó felől érkezünk, figyeljünk arra, hogy a Szent György-forrás felé levezető K● jelzés esős időben csúszóssá válhat.

A forrás-jelzéseken (●) kívül erre vezet a Ciklámen tanösvény, ennek a lucfenyvesről szóló táblája mellett egy kis híd vezet a forráshoz.
